SMALLS
She/Her
Shannon "Smalls" Smallwood has spent the last twenty years as a pro bear fighter in Alaska. After losing a rigged fight, she has fled the Alaskan mafia to the lower forty eight in an attempt to warm up and enjoy her fighting retirement.
​
Her time in the frozen north was well spent, gaining a degree in wild fishery procurement, cosmetology, preparatory sustenance engineering, ceramic transportation science and taxidermy.
​
Shannon is now the proud co-parent of Compass Barbershop, and specializes in both women and men's services including hair cutting and color, as well as facial waxing.
Although Shannon has retired from the pro circuit, she is still available to fight less dangerous animals, such as lions and tigers.
ZAC
He/Him
Zac Mayberry spent his formative years in kitchens from Kenne Bunk Port to San Diego learning all aspects of American restaurant culture.
Then, in a freak accident involving foie gras, saffron, gold leaf, sea urchin and most of the McDollar menu, he lost all ability to cook. Now, ten years later, armed with a new career in the tonsorial (that means Barber) arts, he has opened a barbershop with his good friend and business associate (not wife) Shannon 'Smalls' Smallwood.
Zac's specialty ranges from the classic precision haircuts to the modern texturized looks. His time in Barber school was spent perfecting the luxury custom shave and prides himself in an especially high quality service.
​
Zac thanks the city of Missoula and the state of Montana for being such welcome hosts to Compass Barbershop.
